Software Validation
OxyTech guarantees that the software of entirely its own production called LITESTAR from version 7 onwards
has been developed according to the following International Recommendations and Norms:
A. Lighting Calculations Module for Interiors
CIE 24 Photometry of indoor type luminaires with tubular fluorescent lamps
CIE 40 Calculations for interior lighting: Basic method
CIE 52 Calculations for interior lighting: Applied method
CIE 55 Discomfort glare in the interior working environment
EN 12464-1 Lighting of work places - Indoor work places
B. Lighting Calculation Module for Roads (and Tunnels)
CIE 27 Photometry of road lighting luminaires (photometric data table)
CIE 30.2 Road lighting calculations (program Stan) (version 8.00)
CIE 34 Road lighting lantern and installation data: photometrics, classification and performance
CIE 66 Road surfaces and lighting
CIE 88 Guide for the lighting of road tunnels and underpasses
CIE 140 Road lighting calculations (version 9.00)
Uni 10819 Sky Light Pollution (Italian Norm)
EN 13201 Road Lighting
C. Lighting Calculation Module for Floodlights
CIE 43 Photometry of floodlights
CIE 57 Lighting for football
CIE 83 Guide for the lighting of sports events for colour television and film systems
CIE 112 Glare evaluation system for use within outdoor sports and area lighting
UNI 9316 Sports lighting (Italian Norm)
EN 12464-2 Lighting of work places - Outdoor work places
EN 12193 Sports lighting
D. General
IES LIGHTING GUIDE
EN 13032 Measurement and presentation of photometric data of lamps and luminaires

COLLABORATION
The program has been developed with the collaboration of the following companies or corporations:
Milan Polytechnic –Industrial Design Faculty –Light and Color Dept.: Rendering Module (from vers.6.00)
FIELD TESTS
The program has been tested on the field by OxyTech on various occasions showing high levels of
correspondence between measured and calculated values.
The program has further been tested by OxyTech clients, whether lighting device manufacturers, corporations,
designers or specialized retailers over the last 10 years who have confirmed the validity of the program
procedure results up to the present day.
Correspondence in comparisons between lighting engineering calculations and real cases is valid in the case of
equal secondary parameters (voltage applied to the luminaires and their working temperature, surface
reflectance values etc.): it is therefore advisable to consider a margin of error of ± 10%.
COMPARATIVE TESTS WITH CIE INSPECTION PROCEDURES
OxyTech has carried out comparative tests with the standard inspection procedure foreseen by CIE40-52
Recommendations finding perfect correspondence with forecast values. This inspection has been carried out in
parallelepiped shaped areas and has been taken as reference sample for the development of all successive
modules. Comparative tests have also been carried out on the roads module with the procedure foreseen by the
STAN program of CIE30 Recommendations, finding, also in this case, perfect correspondence with forecast
values.
TESTS WITH SIMILAR SOFTWARE
OxyTech has over the years carried out comparative tests with similar software generally finding excellent
correspondence with the values calculated with the various systems.
QUALITY SYSTEM ISO 9001
OxyTech has adopted the procedures of ISO 9001 Norm for the development of its software and the quality
manual is fully operational. The manual is available to anyone who is interested.
The present Validation Declaration neither annuls nor limits the terms of the License Contract.
